It came to my attention yesterday that some have been pointing to my videos and saying that I am giving credibility to the anti-Semitic movement, and my fans are part of it as well for watching. I don’t want to cite the sources because I don’t want to give them any more attention.

This originated from a video I made a couple of weeks ago. I was trying to show how crazy the modern world is, specifically some of the services available online. I picked something that seemed absurd to me—That people on Fiverr would say anything for 5 dollars.

I think it’s important to say something and I want to make one thing clear: I am in no way supporting any kind of hateful attitudes.

I make videos for my audience. I think of the content that I create as entertainment, and not a place for any serious political commentary. I know my audience understand that and that is why they come to my channel.  Though this was not my intention, I understand that these jokes were ultimately offensive.

As laughable as it is to believe that I might actually endorse these people, to anyone unsure on my standpoint regarding hate-based groups: No, I don’t support these people in any way.

Thanks for reading.

Chem labs: the report is always late, one of your members is always slacking, someone isn’t following lab procedure and breaks a test tube
Physics lab: group members bring coffee and drop stuff on purpose, everyone shares data but lab reports are simpler and individual. we all love each other.

why are the artists on ink master allowed to say shit like “i hate tattooing dark skin” like just bc you’re bad at your job doesn’t mean you get to be openly racist

indigenous artists have been successfully tattooing dark skin for thousands of years & here comes your white ass saying tattoos aren’t made for dark skin 👀

You can transition how you please and still be completely nonbinary.

You can transition in a typically “binary” fashion. You can transition in some ways, but not in others.

You get to decide what is best for you, and you are nonbinary no matter what you decide.

what’s strangest to me about antisemitism is how flexible and mutable it is, as a hatred

to be a committed antisemite you have to ignore so much history and embrace so many contradictions

like, Jews in Europe in the past were viewed as a dangerous foreign element, ethnically and culturally “Oriental,” and were told to go back to the Middle East. in the modern day, the Jews who actually did go back to the Middle East are suddenly European colonialists who have no claim to their own culture.

left-wing antisemites see Jews as string-pulling bankers, the embodiment of rapacious global capitalism, while right-wing anti-Semites see Jews as revolutionary agitators, stirring up the masses with communism.

to white antisemites, white-passing Jews are filthy infiltrators who poison whiteness from within despite being decidedly Other. to poc anti-Semites, those Jews are white oppressors, full stop - lumped in with people who’ve hated and murdered them for centuries.

Jews are too insular and small-minded - no, they’re too cosmopolitan. they’re weak victims who went to the slaughter without resistance - no, they control global events in a massive conspiracy.

all the intellectual contortions antisemites must go through to believe these things would be fascinating, if they weren’t so frightening.
